Whenever I wish to embody winter elegance, this OPI nail color always delivers.

      As a beauty editor, I essentially study OPI nail colors—they're like my own version of the periodic table. From Funny Bunny to Bubble Bath, I can effortlessly identify them from afar, and there are so many classic shades I love from the brand. However, when I want to feel my most elegant and polished, there's one deep red OPI nail color that I consistently turn to: Malaga Wine.

      OPI Nail Polish in Malaga Wine

      Pros: Deep wine red shade, glossy finish, available in nail polish, gel polish, and press-on nails, a timeless red that looks good on everyone.

      Cons: The nail polish formula can chip quickly.

      Inspired by the rich red wine from Málaga, Spain, OPI Malaga Wine is a full-bodied, deep wine-red that flatters all. It has a darker hue with a subtle ruby undertone, making it an elegant choice for autumn and winter nails, or a sophisticated evening mani. However, it isn't as dark as some other deep red shades like Chanel Rouge Noir, offering a nice balance for a moody manicure that's not overly dramatic.

      In the photo above, I'm wearing two coats of Malaga Wine (topped off with OPI Infinite Shine Top Coat), and it consistently provides a rich, glossy appearance. This is undoubtedly one of my favorite reds from OPI. It appears slightly pink in the bottle, but on the nails, it’s a vibrant red. It’s available in both the classic Nail Lacquer and the Infinite Shine formula, which is meant to be more durable and glossier, lasting up to 11 days. Additionally, you can request this shade at salons for a gel manicure. Next on my list are the OPI Press On Nails in Malaga Wine, which offer a great alternative to gel nails and other manicure types. If you're seeking a classy and timeless red that works for any occasion, Malaga Wine is an excellent choice. Shop OPI Malaga Wine.
